Our driver, David, was punctual, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. We went on the tour not knowing quite what to expect, and it ended up being fantastic. We had a brilliant time—thanks so much!
We could ask any questions, nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.

I’ve learnt more on this tour than any book or school lesson could have taught me. Thank you so much David for this. It is something I could do again and again.

David took us on an immensely educational tour. This man lived the trauma and terror of the sectarian violence, the dirty war, while growing up. It's not an easy story to tell, but David is the man to tell it as it was.

We spent 3 weeks traveling Ireland & Scotland. Our black cab tour was one of our favorite things of the trip because we learned so much about the troubles that we didn’t know. We felt like we were given a very clear overview of both sides. I would recommend this tour to everyone. I 100% think it’s the first thing you should do in Belfast to better understand and appreciate the history.
Outstanding tour

David is an outstanding guide! We learned so much about Belfast and its history. We were here for a short overnight trip and I couldn’t be more pleased with this tour. Do yourself a favor and book this trip (with David if he’s available).

David was a fantastic guide and I really enjoyed a very confronting view of the political challenges in Belfast. It was really informative and better than expected. Highly recommended..
